SAFETY INFORMATION
Warning: Turn off input power to your charge station at the circuit breaker panel
before servicing or cleaning the unit.
VENTILATION: Some electric vehicles require an external ventilation system to
prevent the accumulation of hazardous or explosive gases when charging indoors.
Check the vehicle’s owner’s handbook to determine if your vehicle requires
ventilation during indoor charging.
Note Those vehicles which follow the SAE J1772 standard for communication with
the charging station can inform the 25 amp Charger that they require an exhaust fan.
The 25 amp Charger is not equipped to control ventilation fans. If an exhaust fan is
requested, the 25 amp Charger will not charge the vehicle. If this function is required,
ask your Sun Country Highway representative for information on other products
which have the exhaust fan control feature.
Caution: DO NOT charge your vehicle indoors if it requires ventilation. Contact
your Service Representative for information.

OPERATION
The 15 amp Electric Vehicle Charging Station is a compact wall-mounted charging station that
provides the Plug-in Hybrid or Battery Electric Vehicle (together Plug-In Electric Vehicles, or
“PEV”) user with a safe and manageable link between the power grid and the PEV.
Figure 1. The 15 amp EV Charger Front Panel
The PCS-Series EVSE is very easy to use. Just unwrap the charging cable, plug the wall plug
into any grounded 120V wall socket, and plug the vehicle connector firmly into the vehicle’s
charge port. Always plug the 15 amp charger into the wall socket first.
Normally, the vehicle will immediately request a charge using a special communication line in
the cable and within a few seconds the green Charging light will come on and charging will
begin. After an average driving day, it will require several hours to recharge completely.
Charging overnight is the most convenient way to maintain healthy batteries and ensure the
vehicle’s full range will be available the next day.
When disconnecting the 15 amp charger, always remove the vehicle connector first then remove
the plug from the wall socket. When not in use, the cord may be rewrapped around the 15 amp
charger and the entire assembly secured with the nylon straps.
If charging always takes place in the same location, such as the home garage at night, the 15 amp
charger may be left plugged into the wall without damage."
